Dad bought me 2 hand carts. One is one of those bigger, wire basket "Old lady" types great for groceries and Bible Handouts. I also have a smaller one that is basically an L shape with a retractable handle and a milk crate I mounted on it with some bungee "ropes" (Ron's term). I figured out a way to put a small "Free Bibles" sign on that and have been taking that to work (the sign comes off,and my Free Bibles hat,when I get off the bus at work).
I have been standing next to "busy street" for a couple of years now going to work trying to figure out a way to reach out to all those cars. The sign seemed a good way to do it.
I know the cars see it because I went out the day after Sandy Hook and I had a sign mounted on my cart like that (not thinking about cars on the way to the handout it was just a practical way to carry the sign). And I had 2 cars pull over, seeing the sign on the cart, while I waited at the bus stop. I remember that.
So I thought it might be a good way to try. And yesterday a nice man in dreadlocks pulled over, got out of his car, walked up, and asked for a Bible. It was great! I will keep doing that! Please pray for him!
Work was OK except for being queasy. I got it all done that is the important thing. Ace (cab driver buddy) came right on time. I asked him to come a couple minutes "late" so I could get him a Dr Pepper and he said he liked the root beer better, so I got him one. It is easy to put this hand cart away and with it I can carry several of the nice, bigger, Bibles. I would rather have the one hand cart vs. several bags.
My adopted Mom called me a "bag lady" once and I do look like one on occasion.
Still queasy today but I did sleep OK. We had a lot of lightning last night but no rain. It didn't affect my power but I did unplug everything.
Cats are good Cleo got in bed with me for a while, and Biscuit of course. Spotty seems to get Ron's old (Bible) room so I will see him during Bible study.
That's it for now!
